The Cog in the Machine - Lagwagon

Terrorized by threat of size, the cog in the machine,

He settles for the crooked line.

Their pandering to the «small» points: abortion, guns and creed.

Our polar voices buy headlines.

The common must unite.

We’ll force the giant’s hand,

Cripple its demand.

David and Goliath

Sates an appetite.

Let the fuel run dry

They need to do survive

Citizens too sensitive to face the urgency,

They settle for fight, flight or freeze.

Senses, weary, hope to speak his children have to eat

The smallest musters to defeat.

Paralyzed by need

Or force the giant’s hand,

Cripples its demand.

David and Goliath

Sates an appetite.

Let the fuel run dry

They need to do survive

Wide eyed

Infected DNA

Injected into self

Holding its holster

Of the only strife for wealth

He thought he had to save the world.

He only had to stop destroying it.

He only had to stop waiving his rights,

Supporting the stream of trickle down lies.

The cog in the machine — the fundamental gene

They need it to survive!

Wide eyed

Infected DNA

Injected into self

Holding its holster

Of the only strife for wealth

Pigs

We only strive for wealth

We only strive for wealth
